No I have not noticed that. I just checked, no SPAM since I deleted 2 yesterday morning, so I will have to wait until some more comes in.

OK, so today I finally received some new SPAM, I did what you suggested, and I don't see anything to verify what you are saying. Or maybe I am just not understanding what you are saying.

SPAM
 

The spam filter is horrible, and I suspect that Verizon is letting spam through on purpose.  Am I wrong?

I believe you are right since verizon does not recommend using a third part email client.when you complain about spam

they should recommend a third party client.any experienced computer user could tell you that verizon web base mail is junk.

I had my primary email address compromised and could not stop receiving spam almost daily. Since nothing I tried worked, I ended up creating and using an email alias, turned OFF the Spam Detector, deleted all the Blocked Senders, left only one filter to move email sent to my primary email address to a folder I called "filtered" (so I didn't miss anything important still being sent to my [now abandoned] primary email address and would not have to see the spam in my Inbox). I expected to see a flood of spam in the "filtered" folder but instead I haven't received any spam for 3-1/2 days. I can't explain it but it works for me.
